This review is from: Factory Reconditioned Porter-Cable BSV800R 8,000 Watt Generator with 14 HP Engine, Electric Start (battery sold separately) (Lawn & Patio)

Air cooled engines like this one aren't necessarily designed to last forever, so if it is indeed reconditioned, I would want to know how many running hours the generator had, and what warranty exists or remains.

This generator at Amazon has the prefered Vanguard series engine, while not quite as good as a Honda GX series, there is nothing wrong with the Vanguard series engine. Lowes and Home Depot sell only the lesser model Briggs engines. This might be a good deal but be aware of what it is you are getting.

Also find out if the wheels are included, and understand any potential shipping restrictions as well.
